Its been a staple of most cyberpunk/near future dystopia for a few decades, why does the dumbest poo poo like this come true and we still dont have the bladerunner spinners. or dishwashers you gently caress and turn off?

I was a croupier for a while. - Casinos run free shuttles to retirement homes, e-gaming (slots) staff have to look after granny and grandpa as they sit at the machines for incredibly long periods without eating or drinking and often soiling themselves. - The most I ever paid out at once was $45K for a straight flush on 5 card stud poker. It was like 3am on a Thursday and I was pretty stoked. The lady that won was annoyed that I had to count out all the chips to give to her as she wanted to keep playing. She was so far in debt that this meant almost nothing. - I was attacked at the table one time and saw at least 4 people drop trou and just take a poo poo either in the casino or in the carpark. - I used to work in the invite only member area where you could smoke as they had a state of the art suction system. One time a Saudi prince occupied a private room, cashed 4 million dollars into chips, played one round of roulette and then hosed off on a fishing trip for two weeks. He left 4 million on the table and we got paid to occupy the room without him for the full period he was gone. - I had multiple people break down and cry after they lost thousands of dollars in a short period on my tables. - Any attempt to get people to take a break was met by hostility from the punters themselves and the floor managers. - The only time the casino floor was ever empty was for 4 hours on Christmas day, as soon as the doors closed people would start queuing and when they opened people would sprint to their favourite tables or machines like it was black Friday.

Re: Gambling Owning Mahowny with Philip Seymour Hoffman is a good movie based on the actual story of an addicted banker who just can't stop.

I choose to believe that these were all part of the same incident. Like, you glanced at the room behind the guy who was attacking you, and had a moment to wonder "Eeeew, what the hell are those four or more people doing".

I knew I'd read something like that in a book, and that's exactly what this drone swarm advertising reminded me of, but I couldn't find proof of it. I thought it was something in a Douglas Adams book. Man, the future is going to be WAY worse than dystopian fiction led us to believe.

The Red Dwarf books are interesting because they have a lot of the same ideas but expand on them. The books were written by the creators of the show, Grant/Naylor, but this lead to a situation where they stopped working together but still owed two books on their publishing contract. So instead of working together again they each wrote their own sequel to the previous book.

I ran across the first Red Dwarf novelization as a kid, just one of those random bookstore finds, and loved it. Like ten years later, I was astonished to discover there was also a TV show. (None of the characters looked like they did in my mind's eye. Especially Kryten.)

Same, except I read it as the defecators and attackers were all the same individuals. Like some sort of quartet of crazed diarrhetic assailants.

Yeah, toilets usually cost money to clean, that's perfectly normal that you pay in public (in Germany)

denying costumers to use our toilets for free was a good way to have someone poo poo in our parking lot i mean, it was a gas station out in the country, but still

I was on a trip to Europe a while back, and I remember Germany in particular having some outdoor toilets (glorified portapotties) that were coin operated. I don't remember ever seeing that at indoor restaurants.

I can't remember if it was a good strategy in RCT or not. I know you could charge anything for umbrellas and they'd pay for them if they could afford them... so long as it was raining

It's quite common that there's a lady or dude who has a tip jar inside a restaurant near the toilet entrance.

“Geen Cash” is Dutch, so the Netherlands or Belgium. I’ve seen that in rail stations here in NL, never a restaurant tho. Edit: It probably is the Netherlands, that kind of bizarre mangling of Dutch and English words into a sentence is common here. Gerblyn fucked around with this message at 21:24 on Nov 8, 2022 |

Though your receipt from buying gas or something else can have a thing printed on the back that lets you use the bathroom for free.
